Since 1995 car manufactures have added transponder technology to immobilise their vehicles to combat car theft. This is good news for car owners as its helped to reduce the amount of cars stolen and reduce car insurance for everyone.

 The down side to this is you can no longer pop down to the local key shop with a key and get a copy as newer vehicles have to be connected to a computer, the car then registers the transponder embedded in the key head allowing the car to start. This was a main dealer only service a few years ago and some would like you to believe it still is. However, there are companies like Advanced Diagnostics who have developed key programming equipment for locksmiths and garages who can now offer this service to you.
